A tragic thriller full of contemporary resonances.\u201d The Spectator \u2018Fighting Mac\u2019 was an Edwardian celebrity. His stern, resolute features were distributed on cigarette cards and Empire tea caddies around the globe. He was then disgraced, court-martialed and became headline news overnight, before taking his life. 30,000 people turned out to pay their respects. Today, in Scotland, he is still considered a hero. Was he guilty? Or was he the victim of a plot fabricated by an English Establishment to remove a Gaelic-speaking upstart who got above himself? An Eden Court, Comar and Ed Littlewood Productions co-production with Steven Duffy as Hector.
